Agreed with Korth. A little break down in bios with a better explanation of what does what.

[Raja@ASUS]

You wont see more explanation on the proprietary items. The rest, if you don't see it mentioned in the guides here, can be left alone.

How to setup a RAID 0 with two Intel 750 series 400Gb PCIe SSD drives. I understand it is posible with one M.2 and one PCIe, but not both PCIe supported SSDs. Is this correct?

Hello

Neither configuration is possible as a bootable array. PCIe drives can be configured as software arrays only.

Would be nice to have a detailed guide on how to use the OC panel. The link posted already is just basic. The manual is also just basic.

Thanks

The future is here! Something like this for the RVE would be great: https://rog.asus.com/forum/showthrea...e-Overclocking

It really helped me when I got my first ROG board (M4 Gene-Z).

God motherboard is very important thing.
I would never install i7 and premium GPU on 150$ worth motherboard.
Motherboard need to be same class as Processor and Graphic card.
Special if someone prepare platform until new Intel socket show up.
Cheaper motherboard could be option only in situation when customer need to cut something because budget, and than it's question what... slower Processor or slower graphic card, than better is middle segment motherboard with best options.

It would have to be ram (particularly ddr4 for the x99 motherboards)
Best ram to get so the systems can perform better. 32gb, 64gb set ups.

From my limited experience it seems the ram is the variable item that affects performance because CPU and GPU are pretty standardized.

There are so many manufacturers that make ram its hard for the consumer to decide which one to get.

The average person doesnt use 64gb ram but there those content creators that cant afford a dual xeon system so go with the
high end consumer grade processors

I have a couple of questions regarding some settings in BIOS...

ASM106SE Storage controller :
this device, control ONLY the SATAEXPRESS_E1 port or even the two SATA6G ports E3 and E4 ?
Let say I have no SATAEXPRESS devices,if I disable it, the HDD's connected to ports E3 and E4 will be seen and work normally ?

SATAExpress_1 SRIS Support :
If I dont have any SATAEXPRESS devices connected, can I disable it ?

On the manual of this MB, pag 1-36, it say that the ASMedia SATA6G ports are only for data drives....that mean if I have a Blu Ray burner I should connect it to the Intel X99 SATA ports right ?
I have a Lian Li EX503 external case RAID 1 device (for backups) and it is connected with an eSATA cable to the eSATA port on my front panel....should I connect this port to the Intel X99 or ASMedia SATA6G ?

USB 3.0 :
I still have some problems regarding transfer speed and / or recognizing devices...
What's the best settings for these voices (performance wise) :

Intel xHCI Mode
xHCI Legacy Support
EHCI Legacy Support
EHCI Hand-off


I dont understand why it should detect a driver to operate in a certain way... I mean...why it cannot load always the xHCI driver ? It give no backward compatibility with USB 2 devices ?
Yesterday I was crazy trying to find the reason why Windows 7 frooze at start-up....later I found out that I still had my CH Joystick, throttle and pedals connected...
Whay happen this ?
On my previous system (X58) I never had these type of problems with USB 3.0...
